Have one of these in the make from Elia Caliendo - a summer 3 piece DB in a length of Minni's Airborne (RIP) that's been sitting around for a few years.Sounds eccentric I know, but my rationale is:- I'd like to try an Neopolitan DB- I prefer brace-cut to belted trousers for business suits- the waistcoat will work with the braced trousers- I can wear it jacket-less around the officeConsidered having my last DB made 3-piece but it was in a Fox 18oz flannel and I didn't want...

I went through this thought process recently as I wanted a GMT watch for the occasional overseas trips I go on.I really like the look of the Lange Saxonia Dual Time, but didn't feel comfortable traveling with a GBP 22K watch on my wrist. So I went for this in the end. Haven't traveled with it yet, but happy with the look and the functionality.

The stuff I am not happy with predates Russell - it was cut by Mike (Graham's partner) who sadly died.I still wear some of the stuff that Russell cut and I agree it is excellent given the price point. I mainly stopped using them because they got too busy, and had trouble with a DB waistcoat that they then couldn't resolve. I had moved on to Meyer & Mortimer by then.
